The Inspector General directs the activities of the Office of the Inspector General subject to a Work Plan that covers the Inspector General's 4-year term. The Inspector General may amend the plan during a term. The Inspector General must release the work plan to the public.

Upon completion of a Work Plan item, the Inspector General prepares a written report that describes the purpose of the project, the research methods used, and the Inspector General's findings and recommendations. Affected departments or agencies are given the opportunity to respond to the Inspector General's report, which is released to the public after providing the Executive and the Council a reasonable opportunity to review the report.

By October 1st of each year, the Inspector General must submit an Annual report to the County Council and the County Executive that details the activities of the Office and its major findings and recommendations during the previous Fiscal Year.
